Cognex has added new features to its VisionPro machine vision systems to accelerate development of PC-based machine vision solutions for automated inspection and quality assurance applications.
 
“VisionPro’s new interactive tools make it fast and easy to evaluate, implement, and deploy multi-camera applications completely without programming,” said Marilyn Matz, senior VP, PC Vision. “With VisionPro, customers can maintain the power and flexibility of a fully programmable PC vision system, yet significantly reduce setup time and development cost. VisionPro provides a vision development environment with something for everyone…interactive drag and drop, .NET scripting, and a full programming toolkit.”
 
The system now offers a set of interactive tools for creating vision applications without programming:
QuickBuild environment quickly defines image acquisition, vision tools, and accept/reject criteria.
Communications Explorer sends inspection results to input/output lines and communication devices, such as PLCs or reject mechanisms.
Optional Scripting extends QuickBuild without programming the entire application.
Application Wizard automatically generates a runtime application with an operator interface in minutes.
